Book Cover & Preview Text
MISSION STATEMENT Some people see Nigeria’s cup as half empty, but I see it optimisti-cally as more than three quarters full with EFCC, ICPC, NEEDS and Seven-Point Agenda fully operational. Some pessimists wrongly see Nigeria as the most corrupt nation in the world, but with more than two decades of residency in America, and par-tially in Europe, I have not seen any country, which is entirely free of cor-ruption, discriminatory practices and election rigging. Bernard Madoff of New York, USA was arrested in December 2008 for committing $50 billion fraud, which is one of the highest ever in the world. He is not a Nigerian. Many people see Nigeria as the most difficult to rule, but I see Niger-ians as the smartest, highly intelligent, highly educated and most blessed compared with many other countries. Nigeria could be the easiest to rule if the leaders are transparent and exemplary. Nigerian great people and great leaders are not perfect, but the country is moving forward. Let pessimists remove the specks in their eyes before telling Nigeria about the dust in her eyes. East or West, Home is the Best. Nigeria is our sweet home. There is no other place we can call our home. Nigeria is the best! Dr. Jubril Olabode Aka (DMS, MBA Aviation, Ph.D). Texas, USA. GOD/ALLAH BLESS NIGERIANS!

About the Book
East or West, home is the best. Nigeria, with the greatest concentration of black people on earth, is the best. In 2006, International Social Scientists rated Nigeria as the happiest nation worldwide. The Nigerian rebranding campaign which was launched by Professor Dora Akunliyi, Minister of Information and Communications on March 17, 2009 was fantastic and unprecedented. Abundantly blessed with oil, gas, bitumen, and iron ore, Nigeria is beloved within the international community for being among seven of the world’s largest producers of gas and oil.
Academically and professionally, Nigerians are outstanding globally. Unprecedented influxes of Asian, European, and American investments envision Nigeria becoming an economic power by 2020. Nigeria is beautified by the Atlantic Ocean and the Rivers Niger and Benue, Olumo Rock, Forest Reserves, Lake Chad, Zoos, Lagos Marina Beach and Tinapa Holiday Resort, ranked among the best worldwide.
As an African peace and power broker, Nigeria made militants free hostages: Americans, British, Italians, and Japanese, resolved Nigerian/Cameroonian Bakassi disputes diplomatically, and then changed three decades of brutal dictatorship to American-like democratic governance. Great People, Great Country, Nigeria the Beautiful paints a very powerful portrait of this beautiful and proud African nation.
